Residents raise dogs-on-beach, paving and safety concerns during public comment
Summary
Multiple residents urged stronger beach dog signage, asked about paving near new drywells, questioned court access rules tied to grant funding, and asked for clearer speed-bump markings and additional water buoys.
During public comment, residents raised a range of operational and safety concerns near the Village beaches and park. Roxanne Martino reported an incident involving unleashed dogs at the beach and Pam Schutt asked whether a larger 'No Dogs on beach' sign could be installed. Linda Stein asked whether roads would be paved where new drywells were installed. Megan Schmollinger requested extra buoys near stops 41.5 and 42 for swimmer safety.
Residents also raised questions about park amenities: Dr. Lome asked whether the courts were open to everyone given that the Pokagon Grant helped pay part of the cost, Karen Hardy asked if pickleball rules signage would be reinstalled, and both Holly Duran and Karen Summer urged the council to repaint or remove speed bumps after safety incidents. Councilors acknowledged the concerns and directed residents to follow up with staff; no formal council action followed during the meeting.
